Siren
John Kerplunk Nov 2014
Coming down and over
With a narcissistic tide
Daddy's little nightmare
but to momma she's alright

Punched with independence
to hide her own stigma
Breaking hearts left and right
Out for lust, not love

Regurgitating phrases
as if anything was new
Somehow I was blind enough
to ever be with you

I'm never turning back again
You're only burning time
You have taken happiness
But you'll never take my pride.

Ponder
John Kerplunk Nov 2014
All the memories I ponder
and to where I've gotten
If there's anything to fear
It's to be forgotten

I'll always know who I am
But will others too?
The answer is so clear to me
It distorts my view

All the friends I've gone through
yet no one by my side
But each and every one of them
completes my whole life

I don't let it get me down
Friends come and go
It's not that I fear change
I fear being alone.

Modern Day Martyr
John Kerplunk Nov 2014
Violent crimes and endless ****
The mark of shame for youth today
Media has their price to pay
With genocide, a way to fame.

All the internet and tv
Desensitized us to what we see
Feeding the corners of imagination
Sweeping across our entire nation

At what price do we offer knowledge?
At what point do we see progress?
A narcissistic culture is being mislead.
Where no one hears you,
until you are dead.

Fireside
John Kerplunk Dec 2014
Break out of your mind now
and don't you ever cry
There's no need to feel down
I'll be right by your side

and even if it seems to you
That everyone tends to leave
Disregard those in the past
You mean much more to me

Stuck With Me
John Kerplunk Dec 2014
Every time you're falling down
I try to pull you up with me
Equilibrium is failing
as you pull me down beneath

I never thought I'd have to pay
for all your tragedies
But quite frankly honestly,
I've never been more happy

Past time frames of depression
Only wither to life lessons
Slowly but surely
You'll enjoy every second.

Once I pull you up with me
finally you'll start to see
Why I spend my time with you
I've never been more happy.

Sunset Falls
John Kerplunk May 2015
Sunset falls around me
as time fades away
Ghosts of my past roam here
They beg for me to stay

Embrace the vanity
of our apologies
Fate had our failure
and I, welcoming.

Golden locks
John Kerplunk May 2015
Fallen far I have, from that a solitude
I further wish no longer to embrace
Render me of weakness, only to you
For the very thought my heart will race

Pour unto my heart, as it ever only yearns
to our laden collision of fate
An exchange of sight, brightly lit eyes
Stare into my soul, I long await

— The End —
